My intro and bona fides...

[PakaloloFromPNW]

I'll probably be trimming Lady Nocturnal this weekend. I wasn't planning on having a perpetual harvest but that's the way these ladies are going. I've got 6 ladies at different weeks in 12/12 cycle. I've got The One, Blue Orca and Mildred ready to be flipped. They'll have to wait until I harvest Goblin Queen seedling. I want them to be on the same week of 12/12. So perpetual harvest into the next year.

Mazar-I-Shariff x Guerrero

23 days under 12/12

Goblin Queen seedling

47 days under 12/12

3M

58 days under 12/12

3M is the first plant I've grown from a seed that was pollinated by Eminem. She is showing those sativa characteristics that came from her father. The mother is Mildred and she is broad leafed indica. I abused her so her leaves are curling some but the color is genetic expression and not Cal-Mag deficiency or any other problem. I've got a clone of her in a 4" pot that I'll be transplanting soon.

3M bud

This 3M lady is stacking on the buds. Foxtailing is obvious in her genes. The flowers themselves are different than the Goblin Queen seedling. 3M's flowers are shaped more like lilies than the GQ's fat, tight buds.

I've been using my original flower area to run my teenagers and using the new flower areas to finish them under HPS. This has been working out without much forethought put into it. It's making it possible for me to do a perpetual harvest. Here is what my teenagers look like now in the original flower area. Not sure what to rename it though. I doubt if I'll be flowering in there much.

Seeing how she is a popped seed from my breeding I have no idea what to expect. It would be nice to see those buds grow around those pistils. I've got a few weeks left with her it looks like.

I just did an inventory of my seed collection that I've gathered over this last year. I've got 40 different seeds of which 9 are from my own breeding. I've got some old school seeds like Panama Red and Guerrero. There are some DJ Short's Blueberry crosses. Even some that I have no idea about their pedigree like Area 51, Strange Brew and Konga.

I'm going to have to organize myself and start a more serious breeding program. This would be for myself. I have no desire to go into the seed business but I would like to explore some of these older genetics.

Live long and propagate.

I hope you find the antiquities you seek.
You'll have plenty to do forever.

To finish off this Sunday I made some IWE hash. The finer screening is on the left and as you move to the right the screening gets courser the last one on the right has some leaf in it. I'm thinking it will still be good.

 

[HatchBrew]

I like to make hash butter with the larger screens. Or use it for joint additions. Love me some hash. It's a bash

 

[MrTea]

Have you ever tried sieving or micro planing your hash onto a desiccant for drying?

That's mainly what I do with it is add it to my smoking herb. I'm not much into the butter because I don't like eating it. I never smoke it by itself.

I'm really a novice when it comes to making hash. This is only my second time using the bubble bags. I don't know if I'll go much beyond that. Never know what I might do in the future but for now I'm pleased with the results. I've still got some from my last batch of IWE hash. That stuff is something I put off smoking until I'm ready for bed. It knocks me down very efficiently.

It looks like my Goblin Queen seedling is going to be cut this weekend. She has such heavy buds the stems are bending way over. I expect if I let them go much longer they might break the stem. I'll get a picture up tomorrow. Once she is out of there I will move The One and Blue Orca into there clearing up space in the flower/teenager area.

I tried the IWE hash I made on Sunday. I went for the patty that had more leaf in it. It's some good stuff. Here's a shot of my hash stash. I have some dry sift I got from a friend, some QWISO, some finger hash from trimming and of course the IWE.

My buds are too heavy
I hope the branches don't break
-----------------------------

If all of us could have that problem.

Glad to hear of your dilemma

The Goblin Queen seedling is growing fatter buds then the Goblin Queen cutting. I'm hoping she has the same quality as the cloned GQ.

Those branches are almost turning 180 degrees. In other words the tops and bending over like they're trying to touch the ground. I wanted to let her go another week but I don't think I have that choice.

 

[SG1]

I wait till they're done.
Let them point down as long as they're growing.
If they are growing, get your bamboo and string, tie them up.

I stake everything, cause everything gets fat and heavy.

I hear ya. I've got The One and Blue Orca needing to move into the flower area. I was planning on taking her around November 25. She is moving into a foxtail final push so she is just about done. Grabbing the main cola is like holding a bat.

Hiya Pakalolo,

Wanted to drop in and say hello and admire your ladies! love your pics of the IWE hash, i've not tried that yet but I have been making QWISO and putting it on flower in a pipe. Can't say I'm a big fan of the taste always but it definitely cuts down on the amount of material i have to smoke.

Take care my friend.

I've got the 8-ball league singles tournament starting tonight and I'm going to be up too late to get up at 5:00am tomorrow. I'm going to stay home and do some cellar chores. I'm going to be harvesting Goblin Queen seedling. She is just about done and I need the space in the flower area to move The One and Blue Orca into.

I have the fans working but haven't put the doors on yet. I may not do that. I've been running a dehumidifier in my cellar since the flooding and my RH is hovering around 35-50% in my various areas. I'm happy with that and putting doors on may interfere with removing the humidity.

I took some pictures of what I've got going. I didn't bother to deal with the two flower area and the HPS lighting. I don't like pictures under HPS because it reduces the details. But I'm not showing detail here. It's more about the area to give you something to relate to.

Flower area 1

The one in the back on the left is Cascadian Frost and moved in here (flipped to 12/12) on November 4. The other one in the back is Goblin Queen #1 and she was moved in the same day. The one in the front is Mildred and was moved in November 10,

Flower area 2

These ladies are in different stages of flowering. The tall gal in the back is 3M. She is starting to fill out but has some time to go. The one in front of her is Goblin Queen seedling. She'll be coming down tomorrow. The back one next to 3M is Mazar-I-Shariff x Guerrero and in front of her is Goblin Queen #2. These ladies are no longer getting any IPM because I don't want to mess with the buds.

I finally made a decision on my veg'ing area naming. My original flower area will now be referred to as the teenage area. My original teenage area will now be called tween area. The baby/cutting area will remain with the same name.

Teenagers

This area is full of The One and Blue Orca plants. The two tall ones in the back are The One #1 and Blue Orca #1. They will be flipped in the morning after I harvest GQ seedling. I've got the other 4 in 5 gallon pots so they will veg at least another month before they get flipped.

I took out The One to take a picture of what my LST'ing and increased veg time is doing with the canopy.

The One #1

Tweeners

I'll be moving 4 of these tweeners into the teenager area. They're in 2 gallon pots and I'll let the go for a while until I get them in 5 gallon pots. You can see in the middle area my variegated Goblin Queens. The one of the left is growing at a normal rate and is actually much younger than the one on the right. The right one is my experiment on taking a cutting far into the yellow. The other ones in there are Goblin Girl sister, Goblin Queen, The One, 3M and Gooey.

Gooey

She is the newest addition to my cellar stable. I don't know much about her other than she's be around about as long as The One and Blue Orca. She has sativa characteristics so I'm looking forward to harvesting her. I had a bit of a tragedy with transplanting her into the gallon pot. She was cloned in a plug and the dirt fell off from her and I was holding the plug with roots. I had something similar happen to a Mildred when I was transplanting from 2 gallon to 5 gallon. Mildred keep on going like nothing happened. I'm thinking Gooey will be the same. Most of Gooey's root system stayed intact.

 

[PakaloloFromPNW]

I'm going to be chopping Goblin Queen seedling today. I was planning on taking her on November 25 but she looks like she is done. The buds on her are some of the fattest buds I've grown.

Goblin Queen seedling

All of them even though she's staked are bending over and pointing to the ground. The lower branches are doing the same thing. She looks like she'll be a heavy yield lady.

My 3M is starting to look like she'll finish. I wish I had taken better care of her but she was a popped seed and I wasn't very focused on her because of the other known cultivators I had. She was more of a 'oh, I better flip her' type grow than the love I show my other girls. I'm blown away by the color she is showing. It's almost like a New England fall she has so much color. At first I thought the leaves were dying off but it turned not to be that.

3M

Here is a Goblin Queen that I have that was flipped on October 29. That makes her into the fourth week since the flip. I really like how the LST has spread her out. I don't have her staked yet but I'll do that today.

Goblin Queen #2

To the right of her are some of the garbage cans I have my recycled soil in. Last weekend I moisten them with an ACT so the micro-herd is working it's magic on my soil.

 

[MrTea]

Damn. I debated on popping gq or gqs..went with the gq...looks like I chose wrong....lol
